    On an article up now on SSN.

    I didn't read the article, but thought that was what he had linked too. It must have just appeared on SSN

    We should really be matching that, but whether we can match them for wages is another matter entirely. I mean technically our bid is still on the table isn't it?

    I just wonder if there's something specific that Steve Bruce is aware of that has lead him to shy away from Hooper.

    We offered £4.5m for Austin. If Naaaaaarch have offered a max of £4m for him, you would expect us to put in a counter.

    I just think we may have already talked to the agent and or player and something has happened, such as ridiculous demands like a million signing on fee or something, that has lead Bruce to say no thanks.

    If we are not bidding it is because we won't win.

    Deals are agreed before offers are official so clubs are spared the embarrassment of losing out to another suitor.

    I would speculate Brice has been told we are not first choice of the clubs on for him. Ae we are not in for him officially. It is that simple. Not sure why people try to make it harder.

    Apparently Hooper hasn't traveled with the Celtic squad for their UCL qualifier.

    The man is an idiot if he goes to QPR. Showing no ambition in his career, despite stating himself he wanted to play in the Prem and try to get in the England squad for the 2014 World Cup...

    Come on Brucey, we can match their bid if we really want him. We can give him that PL shot he wants.

    SSN have been reporting for the last few days that Gary Hooper wants to go to Norwich City. Closest PL club tio his home.


    Hooper deal looks dead as he wants Norwich City. Don t see DQPR as an option either. If he did then another Blackburn situation imo.

    If Burnley only want £2m then that is a gamble imo worth taking - surely ?

    Nothing wrong with that one little bit.

    DQPR looks a good bet to to a Wolves next season. Only there wonga looks to have any appeal.

    Hooper has not played for Celtic in any game of late. Even manager Lennon looks to have given up on him.

    He sure is IF he does do that. I very much doubt it actually happening now.
